Laravel Migration Tables and DB Dumps

By Jasper Frumau

Sometimes your Laravel setup misses migration tabes for additional databases and this causes issues running php artisan migrate and this also causes issues running php artisan schema:dump for that database. You will get errors like

Error Output:
================
mysqldump: Couldn't find table: "migrations"
at vendor/symfony/process/Process.php:267

So there are a few things to do or you can do. You can install a migrations table first. Then you can run the dump

php artisan migrate:install --database=mysql_publish_testing

INFO  Migration table created successfully.
php artisan schema:dump --database=mysql_publish_testing    
mysqldump: unknown variable 'column-statistics=0'

INFO  Database schema dumped successfully.
